The receding-axis contradiction at the selected points #
The last paragraph of Step 3 of the proof of prop:aniso:small: in the receding-axis case
(A_n = r_n / λ_n → ∞) the rescaled fields V_n, W_n of eq:aniso:zoom:fields, taken about
the selected points x_n = (r_n, z_n) in the variables eq:aniso:zoom:receding:variables, are
bounded in C² on compact sets at τ = -1; if the rescaled azimuthal vorticity Θ_n(·, -1)
tends to zero, the endpoint argument eq:aniso:zoom:receding:endpoint makes ∂_R V_n(0,0,-1)
and ∂_Z W_n(0,0,-1) tend to zero, eq:aniso:zoom:receding:quotient makes the quotient term
tend to zero, and the selection eq:aniso:zoom:selected is contradicted.
The endpoint argument (CIV.step_receding_contradiction) is stated for fields smooth on the
whole plane. The rescaled fields at τ = -1 are smooth only on the preimage of the unit
cylinder under the zoom map, a region which exhausts the plane as n → ∞; they are multiplied
here by a bump function equal to 1 on a ball of radius (1 - ρ) / (4 (λ_n + μ_n)) and
supported where the zoom map lands in the cylinder, μ_n = λ_n^{1-2h}.
The slice region #
A safe radius around the selected point #
If rc² + zc² ≤ ρ² < 1, a sup-ball of radius s with (λ + λ^{1-2h}) s ≤ (1 - ρ)/2 lies
in the slice region.
The bump function and the cutoff fields #
The cutoff at scale λ: equal to 1 on the closed ball of radius half the outer radius.
Equations

The cutoff-multiplied recentred axial field at τ = -1.
Equations
- CIV.recCutoffW h ρ lam rc zc hρ1 hlam0 u q = ↑(CIV.recCutoffBump h ρ lam hρ1 hlam0) q * CIV.zoomWRec lam h rc zc u (q, -1)

Inside the inner ball the cutoff fields agree with the raw slices near the point.
Pointwise bounds of the cutoff fields inside the inner ball #
The contradiction #
The receding-axis branch of the selection of eq:aniso:zoom:selected is contradictory once
the rescaled azimuthal vorticity about the selected points x_n = (x₁ n, x₃ n), at scale
λ_n = √(-t_n), tends to zero at every point of {τ = -1}.
